Gunsan has lots of famous bakeries, but Hongyun Bakery is consistently loved by locals too, so it is well worth a stop if you love bread. ![Visiting Hongyun Bakery in Gunsan](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-02-whkd1-900.webp) ![Inside Hongyun Bakery in Gunsan](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-03-1gfxl-900.webp) ![Hongyun Bakery interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-04-16uey-900.webp) ![홍윤베이커리 우리쌀 빵 안내](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-05-1s2e3-900.webp) What stood out about Hongyun Bakery in particular was that it offers bread made with Korean rice. I love wheat-flour bread too, but rice bread has a slightly different texture and feels easy to eat, so I picked out a few kinds. ![Display of Korean rice bread at Hongyun Bakery](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-06-1dpvl-900.webp) ![Rice-made bread at Hongyun Bakery](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-07-1eww6-900.webp) ![Bread display shelf at Hongyun Bakery](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-08-1a6hp-900.webp) ![A variety of breads at Hongyun Bakery](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-09-ks4lp-900.webp) Because they bake the bread themselves, the smell was so, so good. I visited around 1 p.m., and the shelves were packed without any breads sold out. ![Hongyun Bakery bread display in the afternoon](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-10-1hwvm-900.webp) ![Well-stocked bread shelves at Hongyun Bakery](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-11-1wejz-900.webp) ![Breads and drinks sold at Hongyun Bakery](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-12-xjpee-900.webp) ## The three breads I chose They also sell simple drinks. This time, I chose the Korean rice pastry sandwich, sweet red bean bread, and blueberry cream cheese bread. ![Korean rice pastry sandwich and selected breads](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-13-zsbla-900.webp) ![Sweet red bean bread and blueberry cream cheese bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-14-10xr1-900.webp) ### A Korean rice pastry sandwich for a meal First up, the Korean rice pastry sandwich I had been most looking forward to! Even from the outside, its distinct pastry layers were visible, and it looked crisp and nutty just sitting there. One bite gave me a crisp exterior and a soft inside, while the sandwich fillings went nicely with the bread. It was more filling than eating just one piece of bread, so I thought it would make a nice light meal or brunch option. Maybe because it was made with Korean rice, it had a charm that felt different from an ordinary pastry. ![Korean rice pastry sandwich](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-15-smeze-900.webp) ### Sweet red bean bread, my classic pick Next was sweet red bean bread, a true bakery classic. It is the kind of thing I always end up picking up whenever I go to a bakery. Hongyun Bakery's sweet red bean bread had sweet red bean paste inside soft bread, making it great with coffee or milk. Fancy breads are lovely too, but classic breads that have been loved for a long time seem to have such a comforting flavor every time I eat them. It would be nice to pack as a snack for kids, and adults can enjoy it easily too. ![Hongyun Bakery sweet red bean bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-16-zbo78-900.webp) ![Sweet red bean paste bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-17-ocdb8-900.webp) ### Refreshing blueberry cream cheese bread Lastly, the blueberry cream cheese bread that I really enjoyed! The bright flavor of blueberries went beautifully with the soft, nutty cream cheese. It was sweet, but the distinctive freshness of the blueberries kept it from feeling overly rich, so I kept reaching for it. Personally, it was the one I would especially recommend to anyone who loves the blueberry-and-cream-cheese combination out of the three. ![Blueberry cream cheese bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-18-ncz8m-900.webp) ![Bread with blueberries and cream cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-19-1ebiu-900.webp) ![Selected breads from Hongyun Bakery](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-20-1skvh-900.webp) ![Packaged bread items from Hongyun Bakery](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-21-1fvv8-900.webp) ![Breads at Hongyun Bakery in Gunsan](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-22-1k6qo-900.webp) ![Assortment of breads at Hongyun Bakery](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery-23-1crvr-900.webp) ## From familiar breads to something different What I felt while choosing breads at Hongyun Bakery this time was that there was a wide variety to enjoy, from familiar choices to something a little different. In particular, being able to try breads made with Korean rice gave it a different feel from an ordinary neighborhood bakery. If you are looking for a good bakery in Gunsan, or want to take away a snack or bread while exploring local favorites in Gunsan, give Hongyun Bakery a visit. It was fun choosing from filling breads like the pastry sandwich, classic breads everyone enjoys like sweet red bean bread, and sweet, refreshing choices like blueberry cream cheese bread. Hongyun Bakery is a Gunsan bakery I would recommend both to travelers looking for delicious bread during a Gunsan trip and to anyone seeking local favorites in Gunsan. Next time I visit, I want to pick out and try the other breads I did not get to have this time too. :) ## Where it is - Hongyun Bakery (홍윤베이커리) (홍윤베이커리) - 40 Chukdong-an-gil, Gunsan-si, Jeonbuk State, South Korea - 전북특별자치도 군산시 축동안길 40 홍윤베이커리 - 35.9671089, 126.714359 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%99%8D%EC%9C%A4%EB%B2%A0%EC%9D%B4%EC%BB%A4%EB%A6%AC/@35.9671089,126.714359,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gwangju-cup-stops/gunsan-rice-bread-hongyun-bakery/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
